Ingredients:
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon water
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
¾ cup panko bread crumbs
6 mozzarella cheese sticks, cut in half, crosswise
cooking spray
¾ cup marinara sauce
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper (optional)
Directions:
Step 1
Whisk egg and water together in a shallow dish. Stir flour, salt, and Italian seasoning together in another shallow dish. Place bread crumbs in a third shallow dish.
Step 2
Dip cheese sticks into egg mixture, then coat with flour mixture. Dip again into egg mixture, then into bread crumbs until coated. Place on a baking sheet and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
Step 3
Preheat an air fryer to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C). Lightly coat the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
Step 4
Place frozen cheese bites in a single layer in the air fryer, working in batches if necessary, being careful not to crowd.
Step 5
Cook in the preheated air fryer until golden brown and cheese just begins to melt, 4 to 6 minutes. Repeat with remaining bites.
Step 6
Meanwhile, stir together marinara sauce and crushed red pepper.
Step 7
Serve mozzarella bites with marinara sauce.
